I love to work with different types of crafting mediums, paper seems to be my specialty however, I do venture to other things as well. My blog is a place where I can track and share my talents. A place to take my inspirations and make them into creations

Embellished Paper Clips

Once again I participated in an Embellished Paper Clip Swap on the Cricit.com site. I knew I wanted to make watering cans, it made me look forward to the upcoming arrival of spring. I had purchased some little flowers quite a while ago and knew they would work perfect as decoration for my watering cans. I cut the watering can 1.5 inches and the circle behind it 2 inches.

I also used a fern corner punch and kept the fern pieces to add some green behind the flower

Large Paper Clips

I learned that you really need to use glue dots when you are working with embellished paper clips if you want to keep the design on the paper clip. I will most likely use these on cards and not in my scrapbooks. I do not like bulk in my scrapbooks.

Creativity is a mindset!

I realized that I had participated in the embellished paper clip a second time so I wanted to get the pics on this thread as well. Three different topics: gardening, cooking and Wedding

I used cartidges:

Wedding Solutions for the cake, it was on a stand but I cut the stand off.
